Saban's Power Rangers, in theaters March 24,2017
Chewie replied to Old_Nash's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Why, out of the thousands of fantasy and scifi armors we've seen for the last 100 years, is the "boob armor" bugging so many people? People all over Facebook and the few articles I've seen posted are having a fit about it. ...why? The heels bug me way more than anything else in this picture. Edit: Also, gonna put 84.34% certainty into Rita being the Green Ranger or whatever is left of it.- 128 replies

Chewie replied to Gakken85's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I think that would have given too much away right now if that's the route they decide to take though. There still isn't confirmation that he is Rhaegar's son. What I like is that Jon is freed from his oath now. He gave his life for the Night's Watch.- 539 replies

Blizzard's Warcraft from Legendary Pictures
Chewie replied to EXO's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Even if people don't play WoW anymore, a lot of them are still fans of the series. My entire group of friends and the people we were in guilds with are all pretty excited for this movie and hope it doesn't suck. Has nothing to do with whether we still play or not. People who played WoW because they were only hardcore MMO players and not fans are far outnumbered by the fans of Warcraft. It really isn't mutually exclusive. -
The animation looks....off. Hope that's just because of the way the trailer is cut.

Kind of the point. She's become that which she hates most. I don't feel it's sloppy at all. In her lust for vengeance, she jumped into the mud with everyone else.- 539 replies

Or, God forbid, it's just part of her overall training with a sword? You don't train just your arms to do a push up.

Watched for science, right? Haha Damn it. I tried. I enjoyed a great many books in the EU, namely among them were Zahn's books, the NJO and a The Bounty Hunter Wars. Yes, there was crap. I also still ask: if GL didn't write it, doesn't that make any Star Wars book written by anyone else fanfiction? The current conversation is about tech and hardware. Disney has 30 years of technical sources to pull from. The Essential Guides could have been gone through and taken from. They were pretty much the go to for most of that stuff anyway. Wookieepedia is another great source that clarifies tons of stuff. For example, how big a Super Star Destroyer actually is. The history behind the X-Wing being given to the Alliance by secret Incom conspirators or defectors was a good story and it made sense. The B-Wing being a secret project by Admiral Ackbar was cool. Kuat Driveyards, Wraith Seinar, the Wookiees, etc. It's all already there and I honestly don't think it would be that hard to clean up and make concise. Character wise, yeah, a lot of it has already changed and been removed. I understand that and have no expectations there.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, in theaters Dec. 16, 2016
Chewie replied to Dobber's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
This is the meat of the issue. Racism and sexism are so rampant(or even commonplace) that these out of touch studios, execs and even some writers think a race or gender swap are "end of discussion" when it comes to solving the problem. Neckbeards being the vocal majority about "their" precious childhood being torn apart isn't helping either. Ryan Reynolds just recently said during all the Deadpool press; "women will watch these movies without a love story. Why are studios the last ones to know?" It's a great start to dialogue that gets buried under all the whining. Yes, studios also have to reach people to make money. Without that money they aren't going to make more of the movies everyone likes to bitch about. Like I mentioned before, Disney is smart to push this girl as the lead, regardless of whether she is or not. They blew it with Daisy/Rey and they know it. At this point the choice between a bunch of men bitching about a female lead being "forced" down their throats or the backlash from not showing enough of that female lead is pretty simple. The whole thing is a stupid circlejerk that ISN'T going to be solved with pissing and moaning about a female lead or a token black character(or in Ghostbusters....ouch, both) nor is having it in this thread about a movie no one's even seen yet. -
I say both @@ and A-T A-T. Just happens in conversation. I always say A-T S-T though.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, in theaters Dec. 16, 2016
Chewie replied to Dobber's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Force Unleashed was iffy canon to begin with and no, it's not anymore. Not sure what the issue is with a female lead or them making it look like she is. Who cares? After the debacle with Rey, Disney isn't taking any chances either. SSDD around here. 30 seconds of something and everyone is a goddamn expert on how atrocious it will be. -

Yep. I went to a Sony training a couple of weeks ago for their new 4K tvs. Their tech and all the reps were talking about how 3D was done. Their new tvs are focusing on "true to life/what the eye sees" and XDR/HDR content. All of which is a fancy way of saying they look absolutely phenomenal(after a certain price point).

Intel nailing it again. http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2016/03/intels-high-end-quad-core-nuc-ships-in-may-for-650/ With that Thunderbolt port, you could add an external GPU and this is a monster. -
Dunno if any of you guys are into such things, but if you pre-order the movie at the Disney Store, you get a set of lithographs but I think they don't really have a sale price like Best Buy or Target will have. Best Buy will likely have a steelbook version to go along with the PT/OT steelbooks.
